Erased

the day was spent in a daze
in and out of bed, and my lungs filled with haze
visions of being erased
they danced through my head, and they've made sure they'll stay
stay with me, make me your home
dwell in me
there I go again, thinking of the end
surrendering every moment that I have
to giving in to a disease
I know I'm usually one to flee
but now I slowly learn to live in perfect harmony
with all the things that I know
dwell in me
there I go again, thinking of the end
same old story
it's dark and I'm drifting away
same old story
it feels like I'm being erased

Idle Head

idle head, why do you induce such empty thought?
I need a reason for the void I live with that I've always fought.
I feel it growing inside of me,
and eating up my energy.
I’m never in the mood for anything,
and it happened over time.
I cast myself aside.
I wanna be left all alone to pick myself apart and find why I’m feeling so numb.
am I someone that was wired from the start to be so vacant and so far from feeling joy?
it seems I can’t avoid this emptying feeling.
it seems like every day,
I’m swallowed whole by a lack of chemicals that are absent from my brain
can’t shake it off, waiting for a moment of joy inside my frame.
I feel incapable of feeling bliss.
well isn’t it so obvious that I’m not cut out for all of this?
because I feel it all the time.
an overwhelming lack of drive.
I wanna be left all alone to pick myself apart and find why I’m feeling so numb.
am I someone that was wired from the start to be so vacant and so far from feeling joy?
it seems I can’t avoid this emptying feeling.
spells of disinterest seem so routine;
infesting my head like a parasite.
will I escape this hollow feeling?
I can’t tell, it’ll never really show itself.
I wanna be left all alone to pick myself apart and find why I’m feeling so numb.

Death Deserves A Name
by Can't Swim
supported by 5 fans who also own “Erased // Idle Head”
I'm coming out of a decade long musical hiatus. The last punk band to really move me was from the Bay (American Steel), so it's no surprise that I returned there for inspiration. Can't Swim is absolutely worth a listen for fans of Lawrence Arms or Taking Back Sunday. I'm sure there are much better comparisons - if that's you thing - but as I said, I've been out of the game for a long time. Thank you to Can't Swim for inspiring me to play again.
